Good thing the Braves are struggling....sure the mets could have been in 1st but hey hopefully we got the losing streak out the way and we get back to winning 7 out of 10 games.....mets are only 1 game out....hopefully the mets can stay within striking distance...I'm still happy with how the team is playing...Lagares is a beast

Gary is making a great point. All the Rockies spend about 30 seconds between pitches. It's absurd. To counter that, opposing pitchers should work quickly and talk to the umpires before hand about speeding it up. No one needs that long between every single pitch.

@jenkins As a Mets fan, you should be hoping that TDA can play to his expectation and that we have a long term catcher that is above average. Give him a chance. It's too early to make any assessment about his ability or lack thereof. Recker is good but he is just a back up catcher and not a long term solution.

Nah id rather not to jump to conclusions about a kid who is basically in his 1st big league season being a bust because he didn't hit .400 in april and have 50 rbis. Now if hes still struggling later on in the year and into the next with no improvement then I will begin to think of him as a bust. Lest we forget, Mike Jacobs started out setting the world on the fire.. where is he now?

@Chris Lyons this stadium plays against all our strengths. i dread it more than anything, at least its over the year and we are still above .500. we now get ready to pay in more even stadiums for a while

@eric88 So he has value. You don't have to give him away the Mets can get a nice return. Plus the Mets are never going to want to pay this guy as it comes time for his salary to skyrocket especially with all the young arms they have

@manchu@Chris Lyons He's starting right now and that's where he's openly said he wants to be. It hasn't worked out well in the past with him in the pen and perhaps that's partly because he doesn't want to be there. Although it's looking to me more and more like that might be where he belongs especially with all the young SPs that are getting ready for the call up
